OverviewWith Ring Redux, the museum of Savannah College of Art and Design (Georgia, USA) presents more than a hundred avant garde rings by internationally renowned artists who explore this age-old jewelry form with great vitality and relevance to society today and have put forth their own interpretation of the ring and its ostensibly identical form. In the essay 'Riffs on Rings,' internationally respected jewellery curator Ursula Ilse-Neuman provides valuable insights into the astonishing variations on one of the most intimate and enduring forms of body adornment, revealing the profound and subtle differences in how these artists evoke the ring's potential to express ideas that extend beyond its ornamental role. The skill and audacity infused in these intimate sculptural forms is captured in stunning new colour photographs. In the 'Artists' Voices' section, the jewellers provide valuable perspectives on the conception and execution of their works. The collection of rings presented here has been acquired over five decades by Susan Grant Lewin and will be exhibited, concomitantly with the release of this publication, at the SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah, Georgia.
